Amazing, poetic take on Red Riding Hood. I love how you've subverted the "Red" to be of her lips and blood, also the subtlety in which you wrote meant that I didn't realise you'd taken on the fairytale until the line "Donned her clothes." Occasional rhyme is highly effective in this piece, as are the use of formatting such as italics. Macabre, dark, gothic, but absolutely brilliant. Congratulations for your ability to avoid cliché.

Again another beautiful, dark and mature twist on a beloved fairytale. I love the sophisticated imagery because it guided us through the whole narrative of the story. The last stanza is really powerful because sometimes people don't realise what they have until it's gone. This is such a clever, intricate and detail piece - you've done a fantastic job here, as always.
